Mediocre stay, some issues

bad smell difficult location
Breakfasts tasted okay and had variety. At least I got something to eat each morning.
My room smelled bad, a real problem, and it wasn't fixed fast. A diffuser was only on the third day. The stench remained. The location proved difficult. I got lost often in those souks. A taxi could not reach the place. It left me far.

good facilities delicious food hidden location terrible smell
I liked this riad. The breakfast included many choices, and the facilities seemed good. Dinner at the sister riad had delicious food and very nice staff made our night.
The location was hidden. It was easy to get lost through the souks because taxis could not access the street. Our room had terrible smell and this problem remained for three days until they offered a reed diffuser.
